Crews Make Progress on New Eagan Fire Station
The new Eagan fire station is expected to open spring of 2017.
New photos show the progress being made on Eagan's new fire station, which is set to open early next year.
In 2013, the Eagan City Council voted to purchase 4.3 acres of land near the intersection of Blackhawk and Diffley Roads from Eagan Pointe Senior Living LLC. for $625,000, for the purpose of building a new fire station.

With a duty crew model, however, several volunteer firefighters work dedicated shifts and respond to many of the more minor calls the department receives. The rest of the fire department staff is not paged for a call unless a larger structure fire or significant incident occurs.
The station is expected to open spring of 2017.
